I just received my set of Diamond Race Wheels, lightweight steel wheels in the Porsche lug pattern of 5x130. the wheels are 15" x 10" at approx 20lbs a wheel

My prior set up was cantilevered biasply slicks on a set of 15x7 cookie cutters. The cookies and canti's weight was 33.6 lbs and the new steel 15x10's and radials weight is 40.2. They were approx $150 each shipped!!! |

Hey nolift, nice ride!
Ouch, it looks like that rim has a ding on the bead already, did they ship like that??!!?? Curious what size 6 you have, I'm 2300lbs. with a 3.0, and getting ready to put on some new wheels and probably A6's myself. |

Looks like the box was dropped in shipping, the bead is fine and the wheels are strait. just the outer edge of lip was slightly bent. I have a 2258cc 4 with the car weight at 1800lbs |
